The old wallet use address that is completely different but starts with 1 still. And that addresses public key is not same and cannot be checked from check private key. If Bitcoin core addresses start usual from 1 and have some letters, most of the Electrum addresses i got start from 129 - 126 - 114 etc in the begining of address
If you only imported 5 keys, then you should only have 5 addresses in Electrum. If you have more than this, then it sounds like your wallet file might be corrupt? Huh

Which addresses did you send the funds to? Do you still have these addresses in your Bitcoin Core? Huh

The Funds still show available in full in my wallet, Electrum 4.0.2 which i got 100% from official download source. Nothing was ever spent from this wallet. All the receive addresses are still there in the wallet, the addresses that funds was received. None of it is spent. Neither can i sign any transaction to send them out. Either someone who was stealing them this way screwed up an i ended up with locked coins forever, or old Electrum version had serious bug where it created new addresses without seed for imported wallets.
